Done!

With the exception of refinishing the table and chairs and building some benches (which my hubby says has to wait until we get home from Ethiopia), the kitchen is finished!!! It was a long and tiring ordeal adventure, and I am ready for a break. Below are some photos, starting with a couple "before" pictures that were taken all the way back in 2011. Some things had changed since then (new appliances, window coverings, etc), but you get the general idea. (Yes, I forgot to take a more recent "before" photo prior to tearing into things.)

Goodbye to the old, orangy oak and dark colors...


...and hello to the new...

Disney!

Shana and I had a fabulous time at Walt Disney World last week. We stayed at the Pop Century resort, and visited Animal Kingdom, Epcot, Magic Kingdom, and Disney Springs. It rained for a good portion of the week, but we had ponchos and appreciated the short lines! Here are a few is a massive amount of photos from our trip!
